Just some love for the indie game developers and other folks out their making digital media! (The humans doing it, not the robots)

Yes, you need to write A LOT to get better as a writer. But that's not the only thing you should do.
If you want to improve as a writer, you have to read. If you can read some books about the craft of writing, even better! My favorites for you to consider: https://t.co/UnYbmZaSHz

“Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.”

@hague_rw @enbeckauthor If you put in the work, and still have doubts, I say take the leap.

Just remember the old phrase... People who live in glass houses and whatnot.

@hague_rw @enbeckauthor The person asking the question above did get beta readers. She said she's had more than ten people read it and compliment it. She has been working on the book for a long time. She still has doubts.

If she didn't have beta readers, I would have suggested that before publishing.

@HoldenMRead Lol I am also very tired of it. I try to respond to DMs assuming they're real people just wanting to chat but I almost always am mistaken.

I guess that's ironic considering this is my business account but I don't just DM people pretending to chat.

@struutinsky I learned a lot of skills from sketch comedy writing that help me to brainstorm fiction. Sprints, idea trees, stuff like that (I have videos on it). I also picked up a lot of brainstorming exercises from Natalie Goldberg's Writing Down the Bones.

@hague_rw @enbeckauthor Okay so your first book was not perfect, but you still released it.

[MakeGood Creative Network @MakegoodNetwork]

I will never not recommend this book.

@hague_rw @enbeckauthor So, was the first book you wrote as an adult perfect?

Does this sound like you?

I think everybody should take an improv class, and also read books about improv, but if I was forced to be specific about who would be MOST helped by an improv book...

If any of those sound like you, check out these books: https://t.co/q3SACoSvsm

[MakeGood Creative Network @MakegoodNetwork]

@StoniAstley Lol no. If you ask me, that's a WILD request. I would probably do it for money, though, depending on the book.

[MakeGood Creative Network @MakegoodNetwork]

@hague_rw @enbeckauthor Do you think your first book was perfect?

[MakeGood Creative Network @MakegoodNetwork]

@Wake_Cruise @enbeckauthor I do what I can with beta readers. All we can do is work with the info we have.

@Wisteraverse Paranormal Romance OR Horror.

You've got very cool witchy vibes going on (which is a high compliment from me).

[MakeGood Creative Network @MakegoodNetwork]

@bsnakbooks Uh no but this is a SPECTACULAR IDEA.

@KT_Carlisle I can't help but put redheads in my books. I'm a redhead, so it pops up a lot. It's funny how much identity is put on red hair by other people, so I tend to gravitate toward it! I tried hard to give one protagonist brown hair but she just wasn't having it, lol.
